PVC thermoforming is widely used for blister packs, pharmaceutical packaging, retail packaging and other products that require good clarity, cavity definition and efficient high-volume forming.
-
PET thermoforming is widely used to manufacture clear food trays, clamshell containers, bakery packaging, produce trays and other rigid packaging products.PET, or polyethylene terephthalate, combines good clarity, stiffness, durability and compatibility with high-volume thermoforming production.
-
Thermoplastic sheets are the starting material for a wide range of thermoformed products, from lightweight food trays and medical packaging to automotive panels, equipment housings and hollow industrial components.Choosing a sheet is not simply a matter of selecting PET, PP, ABS or another polymer.
-
HDPE thermoforming is widely used for industrial parts that require toughness, chemical resistance, moisture resistance and durability.High-density polyethylene, or HDPE, can be formed into products such as material-handling trays, liners, agricultural components, transportation parts,
-
Polycarbonate thermoforming is used when a formed plastic part needs a combination of high impact strength, heat resistance, transparency and dimensional performance.Polycarbonate, commonly abbreviated as PC, can be vacuum formed or pressure formed into protective covers, machine guards, transportat
-
Acrylic thermoforming is widely used for transparent covers, displays, signs, lighting components and other plastic parts where optical clarity and surface appearance are important.Acrylic, also known as PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate), can be heated until flexible and then formed over or into a mold
